Discord

Node catalog Triggers

On this page

Starts the workflow on Discord Gateway server events (messages, reactions, members, and more)

Usage and specifics

The trigger uses the Gateway and a bot token. Enable the required Discord intents. Publishing starts the listener; rules filter the selected events.

Technical type : discord_trigger. Runtime : nodulz.

Credentials and prerequisites

Create and configure the credential : discord-bot

Create credentials in your nodulz instance’s Credentials area, then select them on the node. Availability depends on ownership and sharing. See the credentials guide for access and rotation.

Parameters

Names below are technical keys. Defaults are not a ready-to-run configuration: complete fields required by your operation. Paths containing [] describe list items; some fields depend on the selected mode.

Initial configuration

Initial catalog configuration example, to adapt before running. Keep secrets in credentials.

json

{
  "credentialId": "",
  "events": [
    "MESSAGE_CREATE"
  ],
  "rules": {},
  "testPayload": ""
}

Verification

Test with representative data. Check node output in the inspector and logs, then use editor mapping for downstream fields. A trigger test with a simulated payload does not validate external service delivery.
